Has anyone done this? This week I made a paper airplane out of a customer's 10-dollar bill and gave it a couple test flights! I had already bagged up all their stuff and was waiting for them to scrounge up enough coins so that they wouldn't get back any more change. It happens so much, and I get so tired of waiting as they dicker around with their bag of change that I literally made and tossed a money airplane while the line grew and grew.

Next time, add bomb bay doors that drops the customer's dimes into their hand or purse as it does its first pass before circling back around for a safe landing.

If I'm behind someone like that in line, I just pay the change for them.  How much change were they looking for?

It doesn't matter. It still takes 100 years for an elderly person to put the change back, put the receipt in their purse/wallet, grab their stuff, and remember that they need to start walking towards the exit door

Haa haaa haaa!!  Dude, I be thinking the same thing on those [thankfully] rare occasions when I get stuck behind some slowpoke digging for change at the register.

My conversation with a Gamestop employee over the weekend reminded me of your blog series, except in reverse.

 I walk up to the counter with Tales of Hearts R for the Vita.  My cashier asks me if I have any expereience with the Tales series.  A different employee looks over my cashier's shoulder and says, "I have that for the Famicom."

Yes, I am not sure that he realized that the series started on the SNES/Super Famicom.

If he had said DS, I would have believed him.  He also made a comment on how the remake looks way better.
